Jackson resident Erik Ohlson will face sentencing for the 2016 murder of Jennifer Nalley of Driggs, Idaho on May ninth after he pleaded guilty to murder in front of Judge Bruce Pickett on last week in the Madison County Courthouse. A plea agreement between the Teton County, Idaho Prosecutor’s Office and the court-appointed defense attorneys took the death penalty off the table and changed the charges against Ohlson, amending the original two counts of murder to one count of murder for Nalley and one count of voluntary manslaughter for the death of Nalley’s unborn child. Ohlson had been arrested in July 2016 in Driggs shortly after the murder. Ohlson now faces a maximum sentence of life in prison.
